Sky Sports anchor Simon Thomas said telling his 8-year-old son that his mum had died was 鈥榟orrendous鈥�.

Simon鈥檚 wife Gemma passed away last November, just three days after being diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia.

Speaking to 大象传媒 5 live鈥檚 Anna Foster, Simon spoke about his grief and about supporting their eight-year-old son, Ethan.

Simon said: 鈥淵ou can鈥檛 dress it up, I said 鈥榤ummy鈥檚 died鈥�. And he collapsed onto the floor in tears. And we rolled around the floor together, and it was horrendous. I kept saying, we鈥檙e going to be ok.鈥�
